how to make a hole in a rounded polygon
 
Hello

For two days I am trying to do this, but I can't find a way!

I want to cut a hole in this rounded polygon, as to make a place to put flowers inside. So it has to have a small wall and a hole.

Please, give me a hint!

Thank you

I would try to sput the polygons in 5 and lowerd the one in the midle.

yup, carefully split the poly to form the edges and then edtrude them down. ALternatively you could just select the faces and scale and extrude them but I fear you may get crappy results if you do that. You could also try a boolean but again you run the risk of crappy results.

Thing are a little messy there, but for now it's what I need...

Sometimes we need just a little push to move forward!
